This place was nice enough option over Christmas when phi phi was very busy and mostly booked out. Out of the main drag and a little high up so had some great views although these also included a pretty unsightly water drain off area.
The beds were standard Thai (very hard) and the AC worked well but the main point for improvement in the room would be a fridge and kettle facility. The ability to make a cup of tea/coffee is high up on my list.
People who go out and get very drunk or people who are just clumsy might struggle with the stairs too. The ones up the side of the building are regular but the ones up the hill on the property are very irregular and difficult to manage in the dark, I fell walking up them and bruised my legs up.

Quiet and Free Gym Access”

The staff were nice. Didn’t speak great English but that’s ok... it is Thailand. The rooms were nice enough. Nothing special but the air conditioning was cool and the sheets were clean.
This spot is a bit out of the way on Phi Phi, but you can walk the whole island in like 10 min so it’s not a big deal. Best part about the place was the access to the gym. It’s like something you’d find out of an old rocky film or a prison yard. Rusty and outdoors but it’s awesome

The room was clean when we got there. We spent 3 days and didn’t have it cleaned once nor did they re-stock the toilet paper. The owners don’t speak English very well. The room was worth the price but I would upgrade to AC next time.

Love this place! ”

This is our second time staying at Tapear Resort. We love it here! We had originally booked for ten days, but extended it another ten. Koh Phi Phi is a beautiful island and staying at Tapear, a leap away from the nightlife and wildness makes it the perfect location. The room we stayed in was clean and the balcony has a great view of Loh Dalum. It was fairly quiet. At night we could hear music from the clubs, but it was not too loud. The people who run Tapear are amazing and very kind. They made us feel welcome, especially my two little boys. This will always be our favorite place to stay on Koh Phi Phi!

Loved, loved, loved it!!!!!”

staff, location, view

We booked five nights here and ended up staying another three. The location was great...close enough to the action, shops, restaurants, beaches, and general fun, yet far enough away to avoid the noise (especially at night) and crowds.
We stayed in a fan room. Highly recommend it. The view from the balcony was beautiful of both Tonsai Bay and Ao Dalum. It was wonderful to wake up to such a view!
The staff was very friendly and helpful. We always felt welcomed.
The room was spotless. You just ask when you want it cleaned. Simple. It was plain, but attractive...like I said, the view made everything.
I didn't expect much when booking here and was blown away by what we stumbled into.
Oh! And monkeys often came to our balcony. Cute, little (well, some were fairly large) guys. :)

A good find on a crowded island. ”

Price, location, simplicity.

If you want somewhere that is quieter and somewhat away from the main town area in Ko Phi Phi, then the Tapear Resort would be a good choice. Its located a few minutes away from the trail to the Viewpoint and is surrounded by vegetation. A little tricky to find the first time, but not too hard. It's quiet and not too long of a walk to the town. The staff were friendly and the room was a good value given the usual prices for accomodation on Phi Phi. If you don't mind a smaller room and a little walking, this would be a good place to stay to save some money.

Excellent”

I wanted a cheap and quiet night away from the action down the beach front before my trip back to the mainland and this certainly fit the bill. It wasn't too difficult to find, not too far away from the trip up to the view point. I had an air-conditioned room which was clean and spacious. Also the hotel has a spit and sawdust gym which is what attracted me to it in the first place and you can get yourself a decent workout for free while you're away from home (100 baht to non-guests). The staff don't speak the best English but they know enough to get by and seemed friendly enough. The only negative comment I can make is that I had some pretty noisy neighbours that prevented me in getting a sound nights sleep, however this could happen in any accommodation so I'm not going to judge too harshly. If you're travelling on a budget and aren't fussed on the thrills then I'd recommend this hotel.

-MONKEYS on the balcony every morning can appear ~8-12am (they are not friendly, coming looking for food)
+\- LOCATION it is quiet at night because it s not close to the centre where party is everyday, but you have to walk 10/15 min and climb up many stairs
+/- FAN is too loud to sleep with it on at night while if you get somewhere room with aircon you ll get few days of sore throat

The location of this resort is brilliant - a short walk to Tonsai village where all the buzz and life is happening, yet far enough to find some peace and quiet. The room itself is basic but beds were comfortable, air con worked well, large mirror and hot shower. The breakfast was good and staff were super friendly! would recommend.

Bad access and location”

Property was located on the hill and was very difficult to trace for the first time visitors like us. It was a nightmare for the guests with heavy luggage due to its location on the hill. Rent charged was also high compared with the facilities. one can get the better accommodation in the same rate we saw a lot of small guest houses offering accommodation of reasonable rates. However, staff was very cooperative and tried their best to keep us satisfied. Breakfast was very good and the lady at the reception was very welcoming. He kept everything ready for us at the time of chick in and check out. Check out is strictly at 11.00 a.m and don't expect to get extension as they have clearly mentioned on the door of every room that BHT 300 would be charged for every hour after 11.00 a.m in case of late check out. Rooms were small. There was a great view of the green hill from the balcony of the room. Staff understand very little English.

We book this room for only one night and it was OK. Room was clean but no fridge, water but that wasn't a big deal for us. We stayed at the top building and we had nice view-ish. The lake on images is just a dirty pond now and it's not looking so nice. Staff was friendly and we had no problems in any way. Would recommend.

Good choice for Phi Phi”

If you do not whant to sleep in the middle of party, this is a great choice as it is little distant from all parties - if you step out on balcony, you can hear it but not in room!
Rooms look very good and clean! Stuff does not speak well english but you can find a way to comunitate. Deposit for room key was 500baht, remember to ask back that money, they will not remind you - we almost forgot.
Breakfast was very good.

We had a wonderful time, it was clean, comfortable and the staff were amazing, it's just outside of the party area and didn't hear any noise. Has a local monkey who will come visit you on the balcony! Extremely good value for money as most places seem expensive in Phi Phi, would definitely stay there again!

nice place, good value for the price, quiet.”

away from the downtown noise, friendly staff, low price

we checked-in on march 6th 2014 for one night, we ended up staying for four nights. koh phi phi has a lot to offer, and the noise level at nighht in the town is high. this hotel being at a small distance from the town center, (maybe 5 minute walk), the area is calm. we used the fan-room for the first night, and the. switched for the a/c one. prices are great, rooms are clean, wifi is available, hot shower if you ask for it!
we were worried reading the reviews about it being "on top of the hills" or something... we counted the steps: 30 steps. not a big deal.
the guy at the reception is named "Joke" and he is very helpful, always beeing sure everything is ok. he is friendly and always welcomes us with a big HELLO when we arrive at the hotel, or enquiring where we went for dinner...
you cannot expect a better place for that price.

Would consider this place again next time”

Affordable, adequate necessities and friendly staff

This is a budget room, its located on the hill about 10 minutes walk from the beach and the main area of phi phi.
Its a quiet place away from the loud beach disco music every night.
The room has all the necessities for a budget traveler; A double bed, air conditioning and a cold shower (there are no hot showers). That is all the room has.
Considering that I spent most of my time on the beach and only back to the hotel for a nights rest and to freshen up, this room was adequate for my needs.
I would consider coming back again here as the price is not high as well.

quiet place in uphill”

cheap, quiet, kind service

I stayed in here for two nights. At the first time to go to tapear resort, I couldn't find it easily. It is located in very uphill so you may hard to find it without help. But if you are looking for a quiet place, this resort is perfect. It has also some kind of river (a man-made one), it looks romantic in the night time. But sometimes the staffs were very loud in the morning in front of my room so i couldnt sleep in the early morning. In fact, I made a booking a fan bangalaw but the staff changed to air conditioner room without any pay. She was very thoughtful and i really appriciate that. FYI, you should pay 500B for deposit but it will return when you check out.
